| Class D Technology grannyringIs the S500 made by Red Dragon? It maybe assembled by them, but it sure looks like the modules come from here. As do the Rowland Continum S2 https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/1428517 Cheers George | |
| Any comments on DAC going direct to power amplifier or to pre-ampliifer? Let your own ears decide for you whether you should get or not get a preamp(active/passive, tube/ss, etc/etc) in your system for maximum musical pleasure. Life is really that simple. Yes get a Schiit Freya (active/passive, tube/ss, etc/etc) with ... | |
| Class D = Trash? I would like to see one and compare bit by bit to verify that they are the same, I would like to know, what a 1 off price is from EveryChina sitecan’t be too much knowing these types of outlets.http://discosoundequipment.sell.everychina.com/p-99... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! autre43 posts05-29-2017 4:52am some of the amps Im currently investigating are the Class D Red Dragon As Kenny ( kdude66 ) above mentioned the Red Dragon S-500 would be a good pick, and has come from the same lineage as the Rowland Continuum S2, ... | |
| Class D = Trash? kdude66George,That is the one. You probably would need 2 of them to pwr your big panels. Though so! it uses the same Class-D modules as the Jeff Rowland Research Continuum 2, for much cheaper without the glitzy chassis. 500w into 4ohms would onl... | |
| Class D = Trash? kdude66 This S-500 Kenny your talking about, is this the Red Dragon?https://www.reddragonaudio.com/products/s500?variant=969867425 Cheers George | |
| Any comments on DAC going direct to power amplifier or to pre-ampliifer? A key for impedance mismatch is a tipped up balance (no real bass) It’s more to do with the source, if it has an output coupling capacitor being too small (in uF), which yes raise the ouput impedance, when in conjunction with the input impedance... | |
| Class D = Trash? Continuum S2 it’s not a B&O Ice Power Class-D module but this.http://www.stereo.net.au/forums/topic/123187-high-end-integrated-amps/?do=findComment&comment=1847641 Cheers George | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I will and No! I was answering questions and giving links to circuits so members could build their own, as that was the main aim way back in 25th May 2006 on diyAudio.com http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/analog-line-level/80194-lightspeed-attenuator... | |
| Amp Input impedance - old Macintosh C-20 preamp with modern SS amp olid state amp with a input impedance of 100k to be optimal.That makes the choices much more limited There are few, having the Lightspeed Attenutaor really makes me look out for anything over 47kohms which would be ok for him. I believe 100kohm s... | |
| Parasound Halo Integrated vs Yamaha AS2100 But seriously I would go for a parasound product over a Yamaha any day,much warmer,balanced glare and grain free sound then a Yamaha. Yeah you can bet JC designed the Halo with the lowest distortion he could get without negative feedback, then ... | |
| Parasound Halo Integrated vs Yamaha AS2100 +1 for the Halo, just because John Curl (bow to the gods of hifi) designed it Up there with Nelson Pass. Both look as mad as each other. http://wavebourn.com/BAF/baf2.gif Think of Einstein and Professor Julius Sumner-Miller http://www.knowthescie... | |
| Amp Input impedance - old Macintosh C-20 preamp with modern SS amp Looking at the manual for the old Mac C20, it states it has a left and right output of 2.5v from a generator impedance of 23,000ohms (23kohm)!!!!!Which if I'm reading this right, for it to be a great match for a poweramp, the poweramp would have t... | |
| Speaker match for PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP Integrated? I misrepresented what George had said on a different thread. I’m sorry I showed the bench tests/reports for the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium power amplifier. JA said: "As AD found in his auditioning, the PrimaLuna DiaLogue Premium performs at its b... | |
